Container Ranch Papayas (and more) - Page 2

Hammocked Banana · 04-07-2014, 03:37 PM

Yes needless to say my climate is not optimal for papayas. This is why I must find an creative way to get fruit. People say it can't be done but we'll see. The only papayas I have grown are from store bought fruit, which may be red lady but I'm not sure. I haven't gotten any fruit yet but I have been experimenting trying to dwarf the plants in small containers. Hopefully the new method works out better for me.

So I just found out why my seeds from aloha never shipped, they just deposited a refund into my account and said they can't ship to Canada, even though on their site it says they ship seed all over the world. Wish I would have known this weeks ago and I would have ordered from somewhere else. Prolly for the best as I'll now have to order few varieties bc I will likely have to get seeds off of ebay.

Edit: Another decent site for seeds is 'organic seed supply' but they also don't ship to Canada. Does anyone know of any other good sites or ebay sellers?
